I am trying to solve a recording problem with my Ceton InfiniTV4 tuner. None of my recordings are completing. They start fine but after a random number of minutes I get the Weak TV Signal and the program continues to record but the warning is the only thing you can see. The problem started 8 weeks...

Fresh install of Win7.
Passes the digital cable test fine.
See's my HDHomeRun Prime + CableCard fine.
But after that, it goes to activate the product key and gives me this error even though Internet is working fine:

Activation Failure
Windows Media Center cannot connect to the Internet. Check...

Anyone figured out how to get this going?
When I search for WMC + Shield all the results are just of people migrating from WMC to Shield.

I keep getting the disk full error while watching live tv. The disk I use for recording isn't full. Most solutions I've googled are for people with external drives, mine isn't. I can restart and watch for a few minutes and get the same error. I've deleted recordings and checked the drive under...

Trying to help a friend with a VERY weird problem.

WMC was working fine until a year or so ago, but suddenly developed a very strange issue that I could not help him resolve remotely. I'm now visiting him for a couple days, and thought I'd see if I could get any better results in person. No joy so...

So I set up a new Windows 7 PVR last month - it was working fine with no issues, until Saturday when some recordings and some live TV started to stutter (audio normal, but the video sometimes drops from the normal FPS to like 5 FPS). Sometimes it is fixed by a restart of the computer, other times...

I have read about this before but I dont recall the fix. I have tried the weak signal.msi patch.
Was there a regedit to extend the time?

NO TV SIGNAL
There was no TV signal on channel X so {show name} could not be recorded. Reschedule the recording after verifying the TV signal is working for that...

Hi All,

Last week I imaged my C: drive to get more space. Then I migrated all my media files from 4 HDs down to one new 8TB HD. So now I have a C: and M: drive only. I don't use the C: for any media or TV recordings. But now when I go into the TV Recordings on my MCE, I see two listings for every...

EDIT: Disregard below. The overide drm fixed it

I've searched and tried many many tips here in GB to no avail.
I had a system die but the c drive was fine. I put that drive in a new system and of course it broke playready and drm.

I was wondering if anyone could walk me thru a few steps that...

Has the problem ever been solved?
Now DisplayPort is HDCP compliant per the spec, it is just that no one modified WMC. Is there any Hack or registry voodoo to get it done? I have no HDMI port and am stuck at this point

I need to re-install Windows 7 on my HTPC. What do I need to do so that when I re-install WMC I can get everything back the way it was? (I'm using EPG123 for program guide).

Sunday night, like many, I experienced an EPG123 SD failure related to SD itself. At the exact same time I was setting up a manual recording, apparently. EPG 123's/SD guide is now back, but the Scheduled Programs area is not right as when I go to a scheduled show and select Do Not Record or do much...

Is there any way to do this maybe a registry key? I know if you use an external player like VLC you can do it that way. Not what what I am looking for

Having 2 weird problems
Using HDhomerun cable and WIndows 7 Pro which MCEbuddy scans the shows and uploads them to my Home server WD Mycloud with 3 additional 8 tb drives plugged into WD with USB.

I'm setting up a new Windows 7 system and everything's working pretty good except for some reason there's one channel that won't show up in Windows Media center. When looking at the client configuration of epg 123 the Channel shows up on both sides correctly however when I go in to Windows Media...

Can anyone recommend an EASY way to automatically move recordings from 8 client PCs on my LAN to my Synology NAS (on the same LAN)?

Windows Home Server used to do this, but since moving to Synology I have not been able to find a way to replicate this functionality (move each recording as soon as...

Hi There
use epg123 and schedule direkt (list A1 TV for Austria, Sat Astra 19.2 E) on 2 laptops with W7 and 2 receivers, so far so well
one of them Master and Client, on the other only client version, always updated newest data by stick, works well

middle of April - dont know the exact date -...

I have two issues I have been trying to fix, hopefully you guys can help me. I just had to switch from XBMC to WMC because I want to watch my ripped blurays and record tv (Infinitv4), and although I am missing XBMC, i know WMC is my only option if I want 1 program to manage both.

1. When fast...

Like almost everyone else, when I'm done watching TV I go 'back' to the main menu and leave WMC running when I turn off the TV. Occasionally, I have a solid green screen when I turn the TV back on, no cursor or anything.

I can press 'enter' and the screen comes back, displaying the channel guide....

Running 2 Cablecard tri-tuners for years. last night at 9pm screens went black.
Comcast.
2 Win7 MCE detect and see tuners but No sounds or Video in HDhomerun App or MCE.
1 Win10 using HDHomeapp App works fine.

is there some new DRM issue in Win7 preventing HDHomerun App/MCE?

Currently my recorded TV is saved on an internal HD. I am considering moving my recorded TV using Robocopy to my NAS (Apple Time Capsule 2TB). However, after doing some testing and manually moving over some recorded content to my Time Capsule, then adding that location to WMC Media Libraries, I've...
